We almost never get white (snowy, that is) Christmases here, but this year is a notable exception.
The above picture is from Saturday, at the height of the storm (the car you see is my car). In all, we got about 20 inches - the biggest blizzard in December to ever hit our area.
The best part: late on Sunday, Fairfax County announced that school would be canceled for the whole week. Since everyone was starting to get immensely worried that we'd still have school in face of the largest snowstorm in decades, I assume they made this decision in the face of bomb threats or something.
The worst part: shoveling the driveway :doh
Also, our neighborhood had to cancel the luminaria, a seasonal tradition.
So does your Christmas this year involve snow on the ground? And does it usually, or ever?

I'm past the half-century mark in years on the earth, and this is the first time I've seen snow at Christmas.
Dallas had the first white Christmas in 80 years, thanks to that damn global warming.
